the Soul

“My soul is associated with these paintings. They come from emotional moments in my life.”

I am Shirley van Niekerk.

My first professional work – “See again”

When it feels like you are losing the battles in life, you start something new. Something you have never done before. You light up your life with colour as much as possible. In order to see again.

About

SHirley

I grew up on a small town just west of Pretoria. My childhood was filled with many challenges & obstacles. Art has always been my outlet channel, my antidote, my escape.
